VISTA, Calif. 
A registered sex offender has been ordered to stand trial on charges that he kidnapped two neighbors at knifepoint and sexually assaulted them at his San Diego County apartment.

The North County Times (

) says 33-year-old Jeremy Stutzman was ordered Wednesday to stand trial on 11 charges. He could be sentenced to more than 300 years in prison if convicted.

A 20-year-old woman and her 19-year-old roommate testified Wednesday that Stutzman kidnapped and held them overnight in May. The women said he hogtied and raped them and forced them to model lingerie.

One woman later escaped and the other was eventually driven away and dropped off.

Stutzman was on parole after being convicted of sexually assaulting an Escondido woman in 2000. Authorities say he'd removed his GPS monitor.
